What type of certifications to navigate a career in crisis prevention?

I have just an associates in marketing management and I would like to know what additional certifications in or centered around ( crisis prevention) ? I want to possibly work with planned parenthood and or similar programs. My passion is lowering numbers of single parent homes AND ADVOCATE the outcomes of children and young adults that were raised in dysfunctional upbringings. There is a direct impact of children and young adults that grow up with dysfunctional single mothers/fathers that couldn't provide them with certain tools AND give them a negative outlook on themselves and the real world affecting their way of functioning in society. It's important to lower the numbers of children/young adults that are force to live a dysfunctional life due to parents who are not ready to be healthy fulfilling parents. This is my passion and goal. I just don't know how to get there and make it into a career with just an associates marketing degree and no certifications ( as of yet) I'm also open to volunteering and interning.

What to do if I am finishing an associates degree in Marketing but want to later obtain bachelors in Psychology??

I have a lot going on . I am 33. I am a massage therapist. I have quite a bit of student loan debt. I have quite a bit of aspirations. I am currently finishing my associates in marketing management. What is some advice on navigating towards a bachelor degree in psychology? I've found my passion later in life. Working with planned parenthood is what I believe my goal to be. I am very passionate about the increase of children growing in dysfunctional environments due to unready parents. How can I fulfill this passion? A degree is desired but maybe there are other routes.

What are some tips for being a college student and a single mother?

Hello! I am a 20 year old college student and a month ago I was blessed with a beautiful daughter during my second semester. My first semester I was doing really well, I even made it on the Dean's List and would like to continue getting A's & B's. Online classes are already a challenge, but being able to see my baby 24/7 is my number one motivation. Recently, I have been struggling to find time to study, sleep, and even eat but somehow I am still alive. If anybody has been or is now going through the same thing please give me some advice and let me know how you made it. #college-student #mother #single-parent #newborn
